Under the control of Patriarchs

Yesterday I dreamed about Patriarchs - the fact that we (as humanity) barely reached the level of independence.

As when we are bored we look for professional entertainer,
When we want protection, we look for authoritative figure (like military, police, government)
When we want to learn things, we don't even think that we're able to learn by ourselves, so we look for teacher
When we want to "speak" to God, we then need a religious representative 
When we are sick, we look for doctors - or any external people that will for sure tell us what to do!

and while you reading this and thinks it is absolutely normal ; because they are professional, and they know because they have studied, and ... blah, blah, blah

The result is that we are now dis-empowered. 

But then we bitch about the teachers, the politicians, the doctor, the police, the priest, the boss, ... because the teachers are subversives, the politicians are crooks, the doctor make mistakes, the police is brutal, the priest depraved, the boss greedy.


But we fail to see that we have asked them to be there, because we didn't want to be responsible for ourselves.

Sure, for a while the patriarchs were doing a good job in creating dependence toward them - but now, that we are pretty much under their control, the good father figure is now turning into a manipulative villainous tyrant.

The turning point I guess was working for profit instead of working for the wellness of everyone.

I like very much what Salma Hayek said regarding to religion :

The minute I started thinking it through, I realized all religions are a form of manipulation. And I started having problems with certain beliefs-like in Africa, where people are dying of AIDS and overpopulation, the Catholic Church is going over to convert them and take away the condoms! And I said, wait a minute.

How to be independent again ?

By studying everything, documenting, being aware, building, producing, taking  responsibilities for our action, by being active in general and accept that we will possibly make mistakes.

Because otherwise we're just consumers, we are passive and we wait for answers, taking no responsibilities.

Mary Magdalene and the Gnostic Gospels: "Peter, I’ll tell you not only what you don’t know, but what he kept from you."
Elaine Pagels quoting Magdalene from the
Nag Hammadi Gospels on ABC’s ‘Jesus, Mary and Da Vinci’
Magdalene and Mary the mother anoint Jesus’ body with specific unguents, ones known to alchemically aid in Christ’s after-death journey, and then wrap his body in linen in preparation for burial…certainly a task only to be entrusted to the ones closest to him.
In three of the Gospels, Magdalene is the first one that Jesus appears to after the crucifixion. Jesus then says, ‘Noli mi tangere’, or ‘do not cling to me’, and as Margaret Starbird comments, the Greek translation of tangere, meaning ‘cling’ implies a more intimate relationship between them, rather than the Latin to ‘touch’.
According to the ‘Pistis Sophia, a Gnostic text in which Jesus makes a grand reappearance after the crucifixion and teaches the disciples deeper inner mysteries, it is Magdalene’s presence which dominates this dialogue with Jesus, and both her questions and answers indicate an ‘Apostle who knew the All’.
